Kansas Statutes Chapter 44. Labor and Industries § 44-512. Time and manner of compensation payments

Workers compensation payments shall be made at the same time, place and in the same manner as the wages of the worker were payable at the time of the accident, but upon the application of either party the administrative law judge may modify such requirements in a particular case as the administrative law judge deems just, except that:  (a) Payments from the workers compensation fund established by K.S.A. 44-566a, and amendments thereto, shall be made in the manner approved by the commissioner of insurance;  (b) payments from the state workers compensation self-insurance fund established by K.S.A. 44-575, and amendments thereto, shall be made in a manner approved by the secretary of health and environment;  and (c) whenever temporary total disability compensation is to be paid under the workers compensation act, payments shall be made only in cash, by check or in the same manner that the employee is normally compensated for salary or wages and not by any other means, except that any such compensation may be paid by warrant of the director of accounts and reports issued for payment of such compensation from the workers compensation fund or the state workers compensation self-insurance fund under the workers compensation act.
